Bin surveys
Dear Suffolk County Council,
I would like to know whether the Authority has carried out any form of bin survey over the past five years.
Can the Authority provide the number of bin surveys it has conducted in each calendar year since 2014?
If applicable, can the Authority also provide the number of households subject to bin surveys in the same period?
For clarity, a bin survey is used to identify the types of rubbish being thrown away by households or which bins are being used, or both.
:: I would like to receive data in an Excel file format?
:: I would appreciate the Authority providing any assistance to me regarding my request, if appropriate and as per relevant legislation.
Yours faithfully,
Basia Cummings
